Recruiting Video

As an Outfielder I know what I basically need to put in my recruitingg video. However, I am a little confused on the camera angles.

When I field groundballs in right field and throw them to 3rd and home, should I have the camera close to me so that my footwork and fielding skills can be seen, or should I have the camera set up to where the flight of my throws can be easily seen i.e. behind 3rd base and behind home plate?

When I hit BP, should the camera be on the side of me where my swing can be evaluated, or should it be behind the plate where the flight of the ball can be seen? How many swings should I take?

Also, should I include video of me catchoing flyballs? If so, how many should I have hit to me?

Defensively: Make sure the ball's flight path and distance can be seen. No one cares if you can air it out to third if there is no line to the throw. Make sure you shoot some showing the trajectory and some showing your footwork.

Also, do not neglect the throw to second and home. Good to show the all around abilities.

Offensively: You need to get shots of both. Coaches will want to see your overall swing mechanics as well as the "jump" of the ball off the bat.

Flyballs: Sure, take a few. Show off the range. Doesn't have to be many, but show your ability to get quality jumps and make the right reads.
